Overview

My artistic visions reflect both my love for the ocean and my time spent in Cape Porpoise, Maine. As a stern woman on a lobster boat, I spent many hours on the open water, extensively observing the raw beauty of Maine’s coast. I’m a second generation artist and art has always been a way of life for me: during my childhood I painted alongside my mother on a daily basis. After graduating from high school, I studied at the university of southern Maine and the Portland School of Art. I was fortunate enough to study under various local artists, which strengthened my passion for watercolor painting and pencil drawing. Whether I am painting a beach scene, or a snowy mountain scape, I am always fascinated by how light and color change from one minute to the next. Through my paintings I strive to capture the normally unseen details of the landscape as well as portray my subject to the viewer through a different light.
